Don't miss this unique evening of world ballet with top dancers and the biggest stars of today

Soloists from leading world ensembles, including the Opéra National de Paris, Dutch National Ballet, Staatsballett Berlin, Wiener Staatsballett, and others, will perform on one stage. The program will also showcase the latest choreography by Jiří Bubeníček, some of which will be presented in the Czech Republic for the first time. The evening will be accompanied by live music, which will further enhance the exceptional atmosphere.

One of the main stars who has already confirmed her participation is Polina Semionova, one of the most important ballerinas of today. This global icon, a long-time prima ballerina at the Berlin State Opera, also regularly performs at the legendary American Ballet Theatre in New York, where she is one of the most dazzling personalities on the world ballet scene.

During the gala evening, festival awards will also be presented to promising young talents and artists for their lifetime contributions to dance and theater.

The Karlín Music Theatre is one of the oldest and most beautiful theatres in Prague

The Neo-Baroque building, completed in 1881, was originally furnished with tables and initially served for circus and, later on, vaudeville performances and cabaret shows. In the 1920s, the building hosted performances given by various theatre companies and operetta performances.

Throughout its history, the Karlín Theatre employed some of the most distinguished Czech artists. During the time of the Nazi occupation, the building was the venue for performances of the then-closed National Theatre, under the name Provisional Theatre.

After the World War II, in 1945, the director E. F. Burian launched in Karlín the regular operation of the repertoire musical theatre. In 1950, the theatre came under the administration of the City of Prague, and in 1954 became the property of the state and was given a new name: the State Theatre in Karlín. In 1961, it was returned to the City of Prague as the Karlin Music Theatre, and has remained so until the present day.
